There are loads of reviews on the web of the clubs at the cap, but policies and styles seem to change from year to year and one cannot tell how old the reviews are.
We are not swingers but same room players probably so we'd like a smartish soft entry place, not heavy and couples only, your advice for us would be welcome, we are there right now.
Thanks

Are you going as a couple or a single guy? Makes a lot of difference !!

If only it had been Sunday 22nd instead of Sunday 15th !!
We're ideally situated to get a metro to the start and not too far from the finish. Have not been able to put people up previously due to kids at home and needing the beds, but they have now left so have spare rooms.
BUT, we're just getting back from Cap on that day.
Really sorry we could not help you M1ssVery.

@Blue
Indeed, that's because you are naturally well balanced and polite... and you would have passed the test. But there are some (probably in a minority) who might at first seem good but turn bad all too quickly. I'm just saying that a little observation of someone's reaction when they haven't got what they want is a good way to find out what they're really like. As my mum always used to say, "you never truly know a person until you've seen them angry!".

HHHmmmmmmm, have you ever met Blue ??

The government in Egypt was doomed to failure before it even sat down in its parliament they simply did not stand a chance, apparently none of them claimed expenses so none of them got water features at home, none made outlandish claims for second homes or family members working for them, they had no "previous party" to blame the woes upon and they did not use the "we will have a referendum on that in a few years" ploy.

As I said above they really didn't understand how a modern Democracy was supposed to work. Should not Tony Blair / Nick Clegg / David Cameron (delete / clone as required) have been there to advise them on how to fool the public ?
John
Do you not think that the Egyptian people thought that once they had a revolution, got rid of Mubarak, then had a real election that the one they elected (Morsi) would actually do as he promised ? It came as a real shock to them that once in office he did not do what he had promised but totally different things.
However, we in the UK KNOW that in a real democracy you elect someone as PM or President then EXPECT him / her to break all their promises with 12 months or less !!
Our current and recent past Governments proving the point.
John
As regards our Avatar, Shel is still the same build, but the knickers have long since had it !! Too many up/down operations, exceeded the manufactures recommended maximum.
Good to see some of the oldies again.

By the way, we holiday every year in Croatia in Spring and I have a number of Croatian friends on Facebook. I sent them your original post and they found it very difficult to connect the Britain and many Brits that they know, with the things that you wrote. The wife of my friend was really quite upset and she called it "ignorant arrogance."

I'm sure that the people you know in Croatia are fine people they probably have a good job and a decent standard of education.
But lets turn that round a bit.
Imagine the UK had Croatia's economy and Croatia had the UKs economy. If you were wanting to move from the UK to Croatia, then with your skills and enterprise, you'd probably do well there. But imagine if instead of you the people from the (fictional) Chatsworth estate (Shameless) decided to trot off to Croatia, do you think that Croatia would welcome them ?
That's the perceived problem here, we assume, based on previous experiences, that we're more likely to get the crew from the Chatsworth estate than someone like you Hot.

If I told you that the moon was made of cheese - would you believe me?... I am guessing that you wouldn't because to believe that the moon was made of cheese would make me (the storyteller) and you ( the believer) look really, really silly. There is nothing worse than being made to look and feel really silly by believing nonsense that has been made up by even sillier people.
The problem with all this Nationalistic drum beating is that it stirs the dumbest of all human emotions - the fear of people who are............. Different to us. The people who bring disease and pestilence and look and speak different to us as well as eating different food to us.

Yes, but...............experience tells us.........Jeds probably right
I can't believe it, that's really sad !! We knew Neil from loads of events in the NW and later on at various friends parties.
Every time we saw him Little Gem was there, they made a great couple. Can't remember that last time we saw Neil, must have been 18 months ago. We'd expected to see him at the SH 10 year do at Xtasia, know he had his name down, but he never made it.

The valid points that Foxy made could have been found very easily at the click of a mouse on the internet.

But you could say the same about most subjects in this forum.
By Jed posting the above it at least raises awareness of the memorials mentioned, it lets people debate stuff and other valid points get aired.
More bringing together of people to debate stuff surely is better than everyone just holding onto one set of ideas. As demonstrated when the Mosque in York invited in some EDL members for tea and biscuits.
As to the main subject above.
Locally to us is a memorial to seamen killed in the wars. If, by just being there, it encourages one person, hopefully a youngster, to research the conditions those guys sailed under, U-boats, air attack, surface attack, then it will have been worthwhile.

Now don't think this is aimed at you Starlight, or anyone else for that matter, but a great reply to;

is
"yes, but I was using it on the lowest form of person"

In past discussions I have pulled Mids up over various "facts" which he has stated.
But in this discussion I support him 100% on his statements.

After the terrible attack in London I wonder if UKIP would / could / should promise a referendum on bringing back the death penalty for terrorism and killing of police officers ?
If they did I suspect it would push them even higher in the polls. Doubt Lib-dems or Labour could say they would do the same thing, but would the Tories have to follow suit to stay in the race ?
John

birmingham 6, guildford 4, stephan kizco............ they would all have been wrongly executed if capital punishment was available.
Have you seen the records in america where they habitually kill people that they subsequently find not to have been guilty?
Shame on you for suggesting this.
Shame on me for suggesting what ???
I ask if people would be more likely to vote for a particular party if they offered a REFERENDUM to the people of this Country as to if they should bring back capital punishment.
Nowhere did I predict what the outcome of the referendum would be.
Perhaps you should read the wording of the question before jumping to a conclusion.
I'm sure if I'd asked the question, "Should the police drive red or blue cars?" You'd have said "They must drive Fords"

Quote by Lost
I think George Galloway leaves a lot to be desired but he at least speaks HIS mind and doesn't seem to tow the party line or bend over for the party whip. A lot of what's missing in politics is conviction politicians rather than self serving ambitious business men/power mongers. We need the , Ben's, Tebbits, Skinners yes and even the Thatcher type politicians. The people we have are just cloned out of some city machine. There is little choice at present all we are left to vote for are the ones least likely to make us want to go and watch paint dry instead

Would you include Nigel Farage as a conviction politician ?
John
Like him or hate him, George Galloway has a fantastic delivery with words, possibly due to his Scottish accent ?
He might spout some garbage (not all the time tho, I'd say) but he certainly makes you listen.
Below is a link to him addressing the US Senate, he showed them that day !!

Quote by Too Hot
The lack of information about the death of Mohammed Saleem simply proves the point that a seemingly grotesque racist attack on an innocent 75 year I'd goes largely unreported albeit you can find details if you dig deep enough.
The reporting on the equally hideous death of Lee Rigby has opened wounds in the British psyche that have been closed for decades and the hysterical media coverage is creating division where there need not be division. These two murderers were demented criminals and not representative of the Muslim community. By focusing the nations attention on the racial and religious aspect of this crime we are at risk of alienating the vast majority of Muslims who are fully integrated into our society and who have contributed greatly to our society. We need mainstream Islam to fight radical Islam - attacking Islam generally will not help.

Can't argue with that.
John
Thanks for the replies, but none answered the specific question.
So I'll change it round a bit.
The question now is;
If UKIP promised a referendum on Capital Punishment as part of their manifesto would it make you more or less likely to vote for them ?
For me, it would make me more likely to vote for them, even tho I may vote against Capital Punishment, I'd like the chance to have my say.

As we're Geordies we know a good party when we see one !!!
As it's a bit of a trek for us to get to Xtasia, (if it were closer we'd be there every week)so we can't make it as often as we'd like. So, we had the Sat night at Xtasia, the pre-drinks on the Sunday afternoon and then the main party Sunday evening.
We knew it was going to be a great party as soon as we got to Xtasia, Fobs had everything sorted, we got name badges and the atmosphere in the club was jumping.
But is there something wrong with the clocks in West Bromwich? Both nights in Xtasia, time went much too fast !! First night we thought it was just past 12 and it was 2-40 am, then on Sunday we thought that it was 10-30 and it was midnight. Now that is an indicator of having too much fun.
So, big thanks to the organisers and to Xtasia for a wonderful weekend !!

Well, would one of the people who know this place suggest a time for meeting? And if the pub has different floors or areas narrow down a good area. As we don't know any of you, how would we spot you, short of asking everyone in the pub if they are swingers?
John & Shel

What sort of time will you be arriving in West Brom? We have very little travel so we are flexible. Could send you our mobile number. just need to remember Man united are playing West brom kick off time is 4 pm.
Rachel & paul
We get to West Brom on Sat. We'd probably be looking to have Sunday lunch in the pub, say around one pm, meet up with people around two-ish ?
